As an aerospace engineer, my life is wound up inside equations, coding, dreams of designing aircraft, and dreams that one day this spacecraft will fly in space and send beautiful creature images to NASA, and the world will see my engineering.

As many of you know, space engineering is not as easy as you think. It needs lots of stuff to understand. Balancing difficult coursework with weekend escapes to the outdoors have become my lifeline, and hiking has transformed me from a casual pastime into an energetic student.

One day, depressed and not able to understand things of coding and math, I just walked out of the class and started walking around the gardens of campus. I felt happy too, enjoying the nature, and started exploring the nature. It was my beautiful day. I was out of any depression and felt free of my mind. From then on, I started adventuring every weekend or whenever I got free time. I just backpacked and start a solo adventure.

My first hike was not just a hike; it was a sense of freedom, a moment of clarity, and when I was on my first hike, I was far away from my college differential equations, solving coding problems, and learning design sense. Just enjoying the nature.

Yet, as a beginner, I faced my share of challenges. My first pair of challenges was ill-fitting boots that left me with blisters, and my lack of navigation skills had me circling the same trail marker twice. 

I quickly learned that hiking, like engineering, requires preparation and problem-solving. I dove into research, finding resources like the National Park Service and REI for tips on gear and trail etiquette. 

I swapped out those boots for a budget-friendly pair from Amazon, mastered packing a lightweight backpack, and even taught myself to read a topographic map. These small victories, born from trial and error, are what I share on adventurerdivine.com to help other new hikers avoid my rookie mistakes.

As we all know, many of us think that adventure is expensive and difficult, but the fact is it’s a myth; adventure is neither expensive nor difficult, but we have to understand that as we get experienced, we get to know those tricks and ideas to make it easy. 

I accept that for the first time we need investment, but I did it gradually and took small and affordable adventures during my start.

I added things to my backpack in every next adventure, and my adventure journey became more comfortable day by day. I still add things, but still my backpack is not perfect; many things need to be added, and I am on a beautiful journey of exploring nature.

As an aerospace engineering student, I approach hiking with the same analytical mindset I use in the lab. Planning a trail is like plotting a spacecraft’s trajectory: every detail, from elevation gain to water sources, matters. Optimize packing lists, and map out beginner-friendly routes across the place of adventure, from the Appalachians to the Sierras. This blog is my way of merging that precision with my love for the outdoors, creating a resource that’s both practical and inspiring.

Starting adventurerdivine.com has been a leap of faith, much like my first hike. I may not have years of experience, but my interest of writing and documenting my stories in a diary to remember those days will definitely help beginners.

I research for every trip, I learn new things every time, and I write it down in my diary every time. Again, I write my experience every time after the trip. after some adventures i realised that i can also help beginners who may suffer similar difficulties and i can share my experiences with them

I’m committed to researching thoroughly, drawing from trusted sources and online communities like Reddit’s r/hiking, to deliver authentic advice. 

My engineering background fuels my drive to break down complex ideas—whether it’s choosing the right backpack or navigating a trail—into simple, actionable steps. As I balance my studies with weekend hikes, I’m excited to document this journey, connect with new hikers, and build a community where everyone can find their path, one trail at a time.
